Has something changed with the Three-Rock DTT trail frequencies?

Folks,
I've been getting the RTE DTT services for well over a year on my Dreambox 7025 (twin tuner, 1 sat, 1 DTT).

I get the 4 FTA services loud and clear but when I normally switch from sat to DTT service, there is a ~5 second delay before seeing a picture.

Dream Multimedia support had originally thought this to be an erroneous firmware download to the tuner each time I switched to it. But they later on determined that it was probably the cause of untypical offsets being used by BT.

However, I rescanned the services last night and now I'm getting near instant results when switching to DTT services.

Just curious in case any of the gurus can confirm if some attribute of the service has changed.. be it offset or otherwise that may now explain the better results I'm having.

There may be others that are also noticing changes with their receivers.

The 4 irish channels are transmitted at 737.833 mhz via Three Rock.

I've noticed a lot more interferance in the past few weeks, but no delay (with a built-in Sony Freeview receiver). I've added a signal booster which helped.

Dream Multimedia played with the dvb-t tuner driver for the dreambox in the past.
Depending on the driver version 738mhz is nomore good enough for the scan.
Thats the problem from cormacl.
